Interview with Gabby Sabharwal from "Giejo"

today's interview is with GIEJO

hope you'll enjoy it!

-How did it all begin to launch your own line? and what is the
meaning behind "giejo?"

The
idea to create a swimsuit came about really as something that was initially
just for me. I was looking to purchase a new swimsuit for my upcoming vacation
to St. Thomas with my girlfriends to celebrate my birthday.

When I was younger, my mom called me
giejo. I really attribute my sense of style to my mom and in a way named
the collection in honor of her.

[gee-jo] interchangeable and multi-functional swim separates
featuring versatile prints and figure-flattering silhouettes that can be mixed
and matched for a unique look.

컬렉션을 런칭하게 된 계기와 이름의 뜻이 담겨있나요?

자연스럽게 수영복을 만들게 된 것 같아요.

제 생일을 친구들과 축하하기 위해 여행을 계획하던 중 새 수영복을 사야되겠다는 아이디어에서 창조하게 되었어요.

어릴적 엄마가 저를 giejo라고 불렀어요.

엄마의 스타일을 물려받은 점, 이 컬렉션은 엄마를 위해 만든 것이나 다름없습니다.

giejo를 설명하자면 우리는 다양한 기능과 서로 다른 상하의 들의 조화가 가능한

프린트들과 몸의 각선미를 살려주는 그런 믹스매치, 유니크한 스윔웨어라고 설명하겠어요.

-If you were to describe giejo women in 3 words, then what would
they be?

Unique, confident, inspiring

giejo 여성들을 (이미지) 3단어로 표현하신다면요?

독특한 스타일을 추구하고, 당당하며, 감동을 시켜주는!

-living right next to the beach, I got interested in your
collection right away.
